- node description updated - node now errors if msg.host or msg.port is left blank and not configured on the node - server type & host is not required when configuring the node since it can be passed in via the inputs - when modifying a node in the editor you can now view available server types at the bottom of the properties. This is parsed from the gamedig readme. - Update gamedig version - package-lock.json added - palette label changed to "Query Game Server"
node-red-contrib-gamedig
Query for the status of most game/voice servers using Node-RED.
This package adds the node "Query Game Server" that uses the NPM package GameDig to query if a server is online or not and if so returns the data of the server.
You can pass the server type, host, and port on the input message or define them on the node (settings defined on the node will override msg values).
Usage Examples
Inserting query data into InfluxDB and using Grafana to view results
I created a post on my website about how to use this node to query gameservers and store the results in InfluxDB. I then give a dashboard in Grafana that can be used to display the data. Check it out here:
